Overall Rank: 6,834

Back to back top 4k round ranks and BOOM, we have hit our best season rank so far. Will no doubt be using 2 trades here to finish my team off. Logic would say go a Jake Lloyd/Jack Crisp type (swing Sicily), but I'm feeling the Ben Brown POD move tbh.

Bad week. Fyfe will go. The question is whether I use a 2nd trade to grab a 23rd premium. E.g. Fyfe and Mihocek to Tay Adams and Angus Brayshaw is an option, giving me a Def/Mid DPP swing while also covering the fwds with Sicily able to swing with Keeffe.

So many options..

Round 17 Score: 2,643 (Weekly rank 173!)
Overall Rank: 6,605 (+3,272)
Trades left: 3

Grabbed Tay Adams from Fyfe before Rd 16, then did the Mihocek to Brayshaw trade before last round :)

This round the plan was obviously to hold for now, but it's not possible to cover Bont, Gray and Sicily unless T. Smith or L. Keeffe get a game. So it looks like I'll use my 28th trade to turn Sicily to Tom McDonald to keep the def/fwd DPP. Hopefully Bont and Gray are back for Round 19 :)

Turned Sicily into Tom McDonald. Will start using loopholes everywhere I can now. Buddy and Rocky being the looped guys this week at this stage, although I'm feeling that I am better off having a backup for a possible Kade Simpson late out.

Hold on to those trades mate.

Yep will do for now.

Chucked the E on Buddy so I've dodged a bullet there, unless I have a late out in defence :-\

If I can get through Rd 19 and Rd 20 injury/suspension free (big ask), then the thought of going T.Smith to M/F loopy and then Ahern to a M/F gun (i'd have about 480k to spend) as my last trades is tempting. Then I'd have 24 players to pick 22 from each week, with cover on each line bar rucks...

Ranked just outside the top 10k, would be nice to finish with a 4 digit rank.

Team is including using my final 2 trades this week on Ryan -> Houli and Rocky -> Duncan
